David Strickland was a Republican candidate in the November 8, 2011 special election for the Georgia State Senate, District 28. The special election was called to fill the vacancy created when Jim Butterworth (R) resigned to accept an appointment as Adjutant General of the Georgia National Guard.[1]
Elections
2011
Strickland faced fellow Republicans Rick Austin, Curtis Burger, and John Wilkinson. In addition, Mary Beth Focer also ran for the seat as a Democrat. Since no candidate received a majority of the vote on November 8, the top two vote getters--Austin and Wilkinson--proceeded to a runoff election on December 6.[2][3]
